Jason Jones Reports from Iran
First Stephen Colbert did a week of shows from Iraq, and now The Daily Show has Jason Jones in Iran. If this oneupmanship keeps up, it can lead to only one thing: live broadcasts from Infinita.*
The Daily Show airs Monday through Thursday at 11pm / 10c.
* Infinita is Skeletor's planet. Then again, you knew that, nerd.

Be safe, Jason! We all hope you are alright on your visit to Tehran. Comedy central-please post an update! I just read that some journalists were being detained, so I guess Jason should be ok as they won't be detaining fake journalists. Good luck, bro!
I've been worried about him all weekend. Hope he's OK…heard they weren't treating American media too well—at least the police weren't.
This is THE weirdest coincident, my all time favorite TV talk show has a reporter in MY country right when the S*** it finally going down big time after 30 dark years… John, Please devote as much time as possible to the Iran story, people gonna love it, you will be ahead of CNN (again) as a news source….. contact me if you should need help with any translations.
I think it really says something that the only tv media I've seen in Iran is the Daily Show. Is fake news the only way to find out what's going on?
Dude be careful.
Skeletor's planet was Eternia, not Infinita.
**Skeletor's planet was Eternia, not Infinita.**
Yes, Skeletor lived on Snake Mountain on Eternia, but his home planet was Infinita. Read your Bible.
Seriously, is Jason Jones back in the U.S. right now? It would be good to know that. Worried about him, Sam B. and the kids. Thanks.
I'm pretty sure he's back.

"…the reports, taped over 10 days in late May and early June"
I am an Iranian from the city of Isfahan. we need such correspondents to come to my country and show our hate of Ahmadinejad and hate of the Iran's Dictator regim to the whole world. Thank you Jason.
